🔑 KEY STORYLINES
- Pittsburgh Steelers (6-4): Leading the AFC North by one game over the Ravens, the Steelers are coming off a 34-12 rout of the Bengals in Week 11, where their defense forced two turnovers and scored twice. However, QB Aaron Rodgers' fractured left wrist (non-throwing hand) from that game has him limited in practice and questionable – if he sits, Mason Rudolph steps in (12/16, 127 yards, 1 TD in relief). Offense ranks 18th in PPG (20.8), powered by RB Jaylen Warren (800+ rushing yards, 6 TD) and WR DK Metcalf (900+ receiving yards, 7 TD), but they've allowed 261.7 passing yards/game lately (worst in NFL). Injuries: RB Jaylen Warren (ankle, questionable), DE Alex Highsmith (groin, out); road record: 2-2; they've won 4 of last 6 overall.
- Chicago Bears (7-3): Atop the NFC North for the first time since 2020 after three straight one-score wins (including 19-17 over Vikings in Week 11), QB Caleb Williams has zero INTs and just four sacks in that streak, leading an offense ranking 4th in total yards (373.8/game). RBs D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai combine for 1,400+ rushing yards (2nd in NFL), with rookie WR Tetairoa McMillan adding explosiveness; defense is top-8 in success rate but soft vs. pass (bottom-third). Injuries: LB Shaq Thompson (Achilles, out), OT Ikem Ekwonu (back, questionable); home record: 3-1; they've covered 4-1 ATS on road but seek first win vs. winning team (0-1 so far).
- Head-to-Head: Bears lead all-time 13-10 (7-4 at home vs. PIT); last meeting: Steelers 17-10 win in 2021. PIT has won last 2, but series often low-scoring; one playoff clash (Bears 35-24 in 2005 Wild Card).
⚠️ SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GAME Bears (-2.5 favorites, O/U 45) aim to extend NFC North lead (78% win prob.) and build momentum amid Rodgers uncertainty; win pushes them to 8-3 and solidifies wild-card spot. Steelers (+110 ML) seek first road win vs. winning team since Week 4, staying in AFC North mix (6th seed); upset would be huge for Rudolph. Spotlight on Bears' run game vs. PIT's leaky front (T16 vs. rush); experts lean CHI but expect close (Under 6-2 in CHI's last 8 homes). 📱 FOLLOW THE GAME

Seattle, Washington – January 2026
The Seattle Seahawks made it clear that they would not overlook a critical moment that nearly changed the course of their season.
Late in the NFC Championship, Riq Woolen was flagged for taunting after a crucial pass breakup, wiping out a pivotal fourth-down stop and directly leading to a touchdown for the Los Angeles Rams. The two-play sequence unfolded in a matter of seconds, placing Seattle’s Super Bowl hopes in jeopardy.
After the game, Woolen immediately took responsibility and issued a public apology, acknowledging that an emotional decision nearly cost his team at the worst possible time.

— Tariq Woolen (@_Tariqwoolen) January 26, 2026
“In that moment, when the Rams made a move that insulted our team and our fans, I let my emotions take over. It was a mistake, and I fully recognize that I almost hurt the team at the most crucial moment. I apologize to everyone for letting my emotions affect my focus, and I promise it won’t happen again. I’ll learn from this mistake and give everything I have for the team in the upcoming games.”
Despite the apology, the Seahawks acted quickly behind closed doors to reinforce accountability. According to team sources, Seattle imposed an internal fine equivalent to one playoff game check, a penalty handled entirely within the organization and separate from any potential league discipline.
The fine was coupled with a mandatory closed-door meeting, where Woolen spoke directly to the defensive unit, taking full responsibility and emphasizing the importance of maintaining composure in high-pressure situations.
This discipline wasn’t meant to be a reactionary measure but a preventative one. With a Super Bowl showdown against the New England Patriots on the horizon, Seattle’s leadership felt it necessary to send a firm message to the entire roster: emotional penalties will not be tolerated on the league’s biggest stage.
Coaches emphasized that while accountability is respected, actions must follow words, especially when it comes to championship stakes.

The moment also caught the attention of officials after the game. Here’s the report from referee Clay Martin on Woolen’s taunting penalty late in the third quarter:
Despite the penalty, Woolen’s performance outside of the flag was strong, and his immediate ownership of the mistake helped preserve trust within the locker room.
Still, the Seahawks wanted the message to be unmistakable as they head to the Super Bowl.
Apologies are respected, but discipline is enforced — especially when a championship is on the line.
